The second prototype of the Ju52/1M was converted into a seaplane in July 1931 and was first flown from Zimmermann on July 17th 1931 on river Elbe. The production for the first 12 aircraft of the Ju52/1m was started in 1930. But Junkers failed in his forecast for the demand of larger cargo aircraft. Just one Ju52/1m could be sold to Canada. When the first seven aircraft were finished, Junkers decided to stop further production of this type.
